Installing adobe CS6 on a Windows 7 PC.

Help, I keep getting the error: DW042: ARP Entry couldn't be created for language : de_DE. I have tried everything I can think of including removing anything remotely close to Adobe software from the registry file. I checked the install file and got many warnings about language issues but this is the only fault.

Did you actually run the cleaner tool? If not, try that.

  • Error Install Adobe CS6 Master Collection on Windows 8

    So I had two errors while installing Adobe CS6 MC on Windows 8.  The first was a slew of OS Requirement Not Met Errors and was able to resolve this by running the setup in Compatibility Mode as Windows 7.  However, the second error is persisting and I can not resolve this.  I have approx 48 "ERROR: DW062: Unable to locate folder for token SharedDocuments".  I am sure this is related to the fact that, using the move feature in Windows 8, I moved the Public folder to my D drive (to save room on the SSD).  All other programs install properly.  How can I resolve this?
    Thank-you.  Below is the Install Error Log

  • Installing Adobe CS6 on Windows Server 2008

    I'm trying to install Adobe CS6 on Windows Server 2008 to share up Indesign and InCopy via Citrix Presentation Server v6. The Adobe Extensions manager does not work properly and there for the InDesign application will not load properly becasue the extension/plugins are not being installed correctly. Cirtix requires that applications are inatlled via the Winowdows application installation tool
    Is there a prescribed/recommended way to perform the installation of Adobe CS6 on Windows Server 2008?

    BerrisAnderson neither InDesign or InCopy are designed to work in the environment you have described.  Please see Technical support boundaries for virtualized or server-based environments - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/technical-support-boundaries-virtualized-or.html for more details.

  • Having trouble installing Adobe CS6 Design and Web Premium on Windows 7 64-bit

    I am trying to install Adobe CS6 Design and Web Premium on Windows 7 64-bit.  Everything goes well until installing AdobeHelp and when the minutes from 20 minutes jumped to 200 minutes and freeze. 

    Hi.
    I don't know if you are on a personal PC/Mac or on a large environment. On my case I'm trying to use AAMEE to package and SCCM 2012 to deploy it over a considerable number of 64bits machines.
    So, I have created a Deployment using AAMEE and one of the Exceptions was AdobeHelp. The command line that was provided on the Exceptionsinfo.txt after building the package is:
    AdobeHelp\InstallAdobeHelp.exe appVersion=4.0.244  appId=chc  pubId=4875E02D9FB21EE389F73B8D1702B320485DF8CE.1  installerArg1=-silent  installerArg2=-eulaAccepted  installerArg3=-programMenu  installerArg4=AdobeHelp.air
    With the normal AAMEE package I will not be able to install all the Exceptions so I created a CMD file with a sequence to install the main MSI and then the Exceptions. To the provided command before mentioned I included the following:
    start /wait "%~dp0\Exceptions\AdobeHelp\InstallAdobeHelp.exe" appVersion=4.0.244  appId=chc  pubId=4875E02D9FB21EE389F73B8D1702B320485DF8CE.1  installerArg1=-silent  installerArg2=-eulaAccepted  installerArg3=-programMenu  installerArg4=AdobeHelp.air
    My sequence goes well but then when trying to install AdobeHelp it sends an error that it can't find -silent and seems that it got frozen as it's still runing the installation as I'm writing.
    If someone has any idea please share it with us as this could be an error on AAMEE with the command that it was provided to me after creating the deployment package.
    Thanks and kind regards.

  • Unable to install Adobe CS6

    Dear all,
    I am trying to install Adobe CS6 master collection but the installation failed with error message Warning DW066 OS requirements not met for .... (for all Adobe software)
    I don't understand why because I have an HP Pavillon 17-E106ED with AMD A4-5000 APU with Radeon HD graphics 1,5 Ghz and 8GB of RAM. Windows 8.1 is installed, so I guess this is sufficient to run Adobe CS6.
    Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong or is it just the fact that my laptop hardware is not supported by this Adobe release?
    Best Regards,
    Harry

  • Unable to install Adobe CS6, have tried everything

    I have been trying to install Adobe CS6 Master on a fresh install of Windows 7 Enterprise 64bit with updates running on a Dell OptiPlex 7010. I think I have gone through every scenario possible and cannot get it to install.
    Keep getting the: "Installer failed to Initialize. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem."
    Grabbed the Support Advisor, and it told me there was a Windows Update bootstrapper issue. I know I wasn't running any win updates because I tried the CS install after a restart but it must have been doing something in the background to cause that error.
    Followed the solution link that the Support Advisor gave. It told me to get the Cleaner Tool. Tried that and removed all, restarted. Still getting the Installer failed to initialize.
    Took the same discs to two other Windows 7 machines (barebones hardware) and they both successfully initialized.
    I took the hammer to the Dell: reformatted the hd, reinstalled Windows 7 and did not do any updates at all. Put the CS6 disc in and "Installer failed to Initialize. Please download Adobe Support Advisor to detect the problem."
    Downloaded the Support Advisor and it couldn’t detect any issues.
    Any ideas to what is going on and how I can install this sucker?

    Here's what the logs are saying:

  • Installing Adobe Photoshop CS5 in Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit

    Hi,
    Just wanted to know if there are any problems installing Adobe Photoshop CS5 in Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit?
    Planning to purchase a laptop that comes with the OEM license and plan to use 64-bit OS to maximize the 8GB RAM of memory. Just afraid if there are known issues for this type of installations.
    Thanks

    No issues.
    On the contrary, subject to the image(s) being edited, Photoshop will thrive in a 64 bit Win 7 machine given the right tweaks.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/optimize-performance-photoshop-cs4-cs5.html
    Be aware that two versions of Photoshop will be installed 32 bit and 64 bit. The 32 bit is there for legacy reasons with some plugins e.g. TWAIN scanner

  • Unable to install Adobe CS2 Premium on Windows OS 7. How do I fix this ?

    I am unable to install Adobe CS2 Premium on Windows OS 7. My discs require activation but do install to the OS. The non-activation version recommended gives the error message that" this version is not compatible wih OS" and will not install.
    Thanks, Liz

    Hi Issieoo,
    Though you may install Cs2 on Windows but you may face performace issue. Please find the System Requirement for installing for one of the CS2 product: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/system-requirements-photoshop.html . However I would recommend you to purchase the new CC realease with more enhanced functionalities and features.

  • When installing Adobe Photoshop CS3 on Windows Vista I get this error "Setup has encountered an erro

    When installing Adobe Photoshop CS3 on Windows Vista I get this error "Setup has encountered an error and cannot continue. Contact Adobe Customer Support for assistance. Internal Error 2739" I have used the cleanup script included in Adobe Photoshop CS3 installer, and have removed all traces of Adobe apps including the beta versions and Acrobat 8 pro, and I still get the same error, how can I install this application? is there any way or do I have to reformat and reinstall windows?

    Hello everyone,
    I was having the same issue:
    "Setup Error. Setup has encountered an error and cannot continue. Contact Adobe Customer Support for assistance. Quit."
    If you receive this error also, press Quit and follow these steps:
    1. Start
    2. Control Panel
    3. Administrative tools (in classical view)
    4. Event Viewer
    5. Application
    You will see something like this:
    Double-Click for error (emphasized by red color). I have an error like this:
    "Error 1327.Invalid Drive: E:\" if you have the same or e.g. Drive F:\ ir whatever letter, you should solve this problem extremely easy - just insert USB-flash into computer (it will launch as E\ or whatever disk) and than run installation again. It will work than.
    Setup doesnt start if disk is offline.
